the NRA and Alec do not need to make any statements at this time. The gun worshipers and trolls are laying the groundwork, sowing doubt, raising clouds of confusion and obfuscation and using every logical fallacy available to shout down opposition.

eventually, an argument will emerge from the chaos, and be trundled into the official channels through Drudge and Fox News, and then ALEC and the NRA can begin to make their wishes known to their pet congressmen.

It is now and shall be evermore about the money. Who gets paid by the NRA? How much money do all the gun companies make? What about the rights of all the victims of gun violence to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness?
